does anyone know of a way to find obscure YA novels you only vaguely remember

I’ve had this reoccurring thing every year or so where I remember this book I read in like 5th - 6th grade that was really fucking good every year or so. I need to find it, I try every time but no amount of Googling thin recollections of its plot has got me anywhere.

YSK: Indeed and other job sites are saturated with scams
